FAQs  

Pricing
Q: Why can't I see pricing?
A: Pricing is available to registered accounts ONLY.  Please click on the yellow banner at the top of the homepage, and fill out the necessary fields to register.  It is completely FREE to register and NO minimum order amounts.  Approval can take up to 24 business hours.  

Login
Q: My login does not work?
A: There are 3 reasons a login would not work: 1. You were not approved for a Wholesale Account meaning you did not provide a business name, meaning you are not qualified for an account.  You may go to our national website www.interiorexpress.com where pricing includes shipping.  2. You have registered for an account that is outside of the lower continental 48 United States of America.  We do not ship outside of the lower continental United States.  We do however approve Canadian accounts on a case by case basis.  A Canadian account MUST provide their own carrier.  Please contact us at sales@wholesale-interiors.com if this applies to you.  3. It can take up to 24 hours for your account to be approved.  Once approved you will be able to sign in and view pricing.  If you make an order, a shipping cost will be emailed to you where you must approve in order for the shipment process to continue. Once an order has had the shipping approved and IS NOT on backorder, the shipment could take 3 to 5 business days to be in transit.  You are sent an email once an item has shipped, plus the status of the order will change to shipped in your account.

Drop Shipping
Q: Do you drop ship? 
A: Yes we do drop ship. Our customers do not have to carry inventory.

Inventory
